Tom Parker, Photographer, London

Description

This editorial photograph captured by Tom Parker in London depicts a group of young baseball players in matching blue uniforms practicing inside an empty, weathered concrete swimming pool. In the foreground, a coach wearing a blue baseball cap and a jersey marked with the name Chirino and number 12 looks down into the basin from the edge. Below, several children are positioned across the faded blue floor of the dry pool, some holding bats and gloves while others field or pitch under bright natural daylight. The surrounding white walls of the pool show signs of wear and age, framing the unique practice setting from a high-angle perspective.
